Systemic design
1. Systemic design is distinguished from service or experience design
in terms of scale, social complexity and integration – it is concerned
with higher order systems that entail multiple subsystems.
2. By integrating systems thinking and its methods, systemic design
brings human-centred design to complex, multi-stakeholder service
systems.
3. It adapts from known design competencies, social and generative
research methods, sketching and visualization practices – to describe,
map, propose and reconfigure complex services and systems.

What systemic design…
1. Allows understanding situations from multiple scales and
perspectives.
2. Provides ways of empathising with stakeholders to construct a
broader context within specific challenge.

Systemic & Designerly methods
• Service Ecology is a system of interactions and actors that,
together, create a sustainable and successful service or
experience.

Systemic & Designerly methods
• Stakeholders map/ Actors map is mapping service actors and
stakeholders to investigate relationships that are part of or affect
the service and to generate new service concepts by reorganizing
how actors work together.

GIGA-mapping visualise complexity from which a designer can
deliver innovative solutions.
GIGA-maps provide a multi-scale, multi-layered framework for
visualising information gathered during a systemic design inquiry.
GIGA-maps are synthetic and flexible, hierarchical and non-
hierarchical maps into a single thick description.
